Starting Dec. 14, the HIM department will no longer send medical providers their document “to do” (formally known as deficiency) list to their personal email address.
Providers can access their “to do” notifications in their Epic InBasket. The cadence will remain the same. Weekly notification emails regarding EPIC work pending are sent on Tuesdays with reminder notifications sent on Thursdays each week.
A completed 4SPS demonstrated the time spent emailing providers their “to do” notification equated to .25 of an FTE. Emailing providers is unsustainable re-work. The same information is in the physician’s Epic InBasket.
*Providers are encouraged to check their Epic InBasket several times a week.
